It has ovate, glossy leaves all along the stem. The flowers are tubular, with dark red calyx, bright red petals, and pale yellow inside the tube with some red spots. It won't tolerate frosts, and will do better in warmer places. Direct sun light should be avoided, and the plant must be on an organic, well drained, moist soil. |
One member has or wants this plant for trade.
